The most common reason for this behavior is that there your the driver of your graphics card (also known as video card) is not up to date. The software uses the power of your graphics card to draw and shade graphs. If there is a problem with your graphics card the program would shut down without displaying any error messages unfortunately.

So go to the manufacturer website of your graphics card and download the latest version of the driver for your graphics cards. Do not go to Microsoft's site or Windows' site because they do not include the complete package in their drivers. In particular they do not include OpenGL libraries that are needed by our software.
